I Love Heat!

We were without heat for a couple of weeks but now we're back on!! We had several different people with different companies give us estimates on the repair or their ability to repair the damage. Thankfully, one of Eric's friends has a brother who does this work as a living. He came out and fixed it for us for WAAAAY cheaper than other quotes...and we threw in a batch of our infamous E Boyd Peanut Butter Cookies. He was my favorite person a couple days ago!! It is so nice to be warm in every room as we walk through the house instead of using the space heater to warm up the bathroom while we shower and dress and then move it to the next area we'll be in.
I also have to give shout-outs to those who tried their best to help us but were willing to acknowledge that it was a bigger job than they felt comfortable handling. First up, Ethan Dooley who diagnosed the problem originally. Secondly, Jim Grigsby who came out on his own time to attempt to fix it himself.

Ya I'm so glad you guys have heat again! Just in time for it to be 71 degrees outside today. :o) But seriously that's great news.

Remember how cold it was in the villa when the heater died? Never doing the ghetto thing again

Yeah, Sarah, we've been reliving those moments!! The guy got it fixed before the night it hit the 20's...to be followed up by warmer weather, but that's okay...as long as I have the OPTION, I'll always be glad NOT to have to use it and save some cash. =)
